For Your Autos

If you own an all-terrain vehicle or are thinking of purchasing an ATV, it is imperative that you know how to operate the vehicle safely, to protect yourself and others.

So, check out the following safe driving tips.

Always Take Your Phone with You

You should always make sure you take your cell phone with you when operating an ATV so that you can call for help should you be involved in an accident.

That is particularly important if you are heading out to a rural area by yourself.

If you are involved in an accident, make sure you seek medical attention as soon as possible. Even if you do not have any visible injuries, you could have something unnoticeable like internal bleeding or a traumatic head injury with no symptoms, so never skip getting checked out by a medical professional.

And if you are injured in an ATV

As we approach a new future of automotive electrification, manufactures continue to have a bridge over an electric vehicle (EV) world in innovative plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV). Volvo has been in the PHEV game for some time now, and the latest XC90 midsized three-row seating crossover continues with some minor updates from trim level revamping, additional power, and a slightly increased all-electric range.

Having experienced the 2021 Volvo XC90 Recharge just a couple of years ago it is refreshing to get another go at such a vehicle and see what the manufacturer has done to keep it fresh. With that, Volvo impresses me again with a decently performing vehicle for its versatility in being a plug-in hybrid along with the premium accommodations in a unique approach with the choice of its wool blend seat material found on my test vehicle.

A car’s license plate number is essential in its identification. Do you have a stolen car? Or you got into an accident with a driver who absconded from the scene? In any situation you find yourself in, consulting a license plate lookup service online could solve all your problems.

What Information can Plate License Numbers Provide?

In the world of trucks, there’s quite a battle in the area of rugged pickups that attempt to balance a delicate act of offering luxurious interior appointments and off-road capabilities. In such a delicate act, automakers have gone the extra distance to pay special attention to unique trim levels within their lineup to give consumers what they want, and now it seems they can have it in trucks like the new GMC Sierra 1500 AT4X.

The GMC Sierra 1500 AT4X is a new trim that was introduced for the 2022 model year, which now gets the availability of an AT4X AEV Edition (American Expedition Vehicles) that further enhances the off-roading capabilities of such a truck with specialized equipment. Having the 2023 GMC Sierra 1500 AT4X this week, while it doesn’t have the AEV Edition equipment, is a welcoming experience in witnessing what GM has to offer for their off-roading 4×4

One of the biggest headwinds for electric vehicle (EV) uptake has been the charging experience. EV models on the market today require a plug-in charger for use either at home or a public station. The idea of going wireless with induction charging has been floated for years, promising benefits such as a reduction in battery size and cost, extended driving range, reduced pressure on the grid, and the ability to charge multiple EVs simultaneously. While a number of big-name companies are working on the technology and running pilots, traction has been slow. That’s starting to change.

“In five years, wireless EV charging will be the dominant form of charging infrastructure globally,” predicts Oren Ezer, Co-Founder and Chief Executive of wireless charging specialist Electreon. “Wires and cables will never appear on the busy streets of mega cities like Paris or along New York’s 5th Avenue. Inevitably, EV charging will become less

There is an exhilarating cohort of electric performance vehicles occupying today’s roads, whether the Audi e-Tron GT and Porsche Taycan GTS or Lucid Air and Mercedes-AMG EQS. Although each offers conscious EV owners unique and outstanding technological experiences behind the wheel, this group also falls in the upper echelon of ownership costs. Well, Kia — with 30 years of experience in the United States — has just given us a potent alternative for far less than $100,000 that sets asphalt ablaze with the fierceness and force of quiet storms. Welcome to the evolutionary world of the all-electric, high-velocity 2023 Kia EV6 GT.

EV6 GT Overview and Positioning

The authenticity of the limited production 2023 Kia EV6 GT’s superlative DNA stems from the birthright of the original EV6 all-electric, 5-passenger sport crossover which lit up the “zero emissions” market with silent gallops. This is Kia’s

When most people think of car auctions, the first thing that comes to mind is probably the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale, Arizona. It’s certainly the most well-known and prestigious car auction in the country — but it’s not the only one. 

Several other major auto auction companies exist throughout the United States and hold frequent auctions, including events where you can get insurance auto auction vehicles. Are you wondering where to start your search? Here is a look at some of the most popular auto auctions in the United States today!

A vehicle purchase is a big financial decision. It is one of the major expenses households have to shoulder. Given just how much money is spent on buying a vehicle, it’s important to get it right.

You certainly do not want to buy a vehicle that turns out unsuitable for your needs. Similarly, you want to finance your vehicle purchase in the most optimal way. This article discusses the most important factors to consider when buying a car.

Ask why you want/need a car

People purchase vehicles for various reasons, ranging from luxury to commercial purposes. Obviously, no one vehicle is suitable for all needs. It is, therefore, essential to ask why you require a car.

The answer to this question will determine, to a large extent, the appropriate vehicle for you. For instance, a pick-up truck might be ideal for you if you do a lot of heavy

The metrics of 0 to 60 mph or a quarter mile time is just one page taken out of the thick book of automotive performance and there’s a much bigger picture to being the champion of this one measurement. However, when it comes to bragging rights, Tesla made headlines and justifiable bragging rights for owners of the new Tesla Model S Plaid (1,020 horsepower) as it demolished everything with a 0-60 mph time of about 2 seconds and shattering the quarter mile in 9.4 seconds (give or take).

In the horsepower and “quickness” wars of electric vehicles (EVs), there’s a new battle upon us that we’ve never seen before. One that takes advantage of that instant torque from electric motors and sending a family sedan down a drag strip (or your local street) that almost defies the laws of physics, at least for a “car.”
